The commissioner may, after appropriate notice and opportunity for hearing, by order censure, or suspend for a period not exceeding 12 months, or bar from any position of employment or management of, any credit union, any officer, director, or employee of, or person performing similar functions for, a credit union, if the commissioner finds that:
(1) The censure, suspension or bar is in the public interest, that the person has committed a violation of this division or rule of the commissioner, and that the violation was either willful or caused, or will probably cause, material damage to the credit union or any member thereof.
(2) Any officer, director, employee of, or person performing similar functions for a credit union has been convicted of, or pleaded nolo contendere to, a crime, or has been held liable in a civil action by final judgment if the crime or civil action involved fraud, embezzlement, fraudulent conversion or misappropriation of property.
